OMG OMG OMG
So today, McKay and I got an email informing us that a short story we'd written for an online call for submissions has been accepted for publication. WOO!!!!
There just aren't words for how happy this makes me. We ACTUALLY DID IT. It took a lot for us to get to this point, and we never would have made it without fandom - after all, we met through fandom, and learned our trade in fandom, and the response of fandom to our writing is what gave us the confidence to believe we might actually be able to do it out in the "real world". We're going to be published authors, and even if it is a small beginning, hopefully it is going to lead to even bigger things in the future.
So I want to say thank you to everyone in fandom, especially the Snupineers, the members of Snark and Bark, and everyone who has ever read and commented on our fanfic - you helped make this possible, and I'm very grateful to everyone who has supported us in the last 8 years. In particular, Lore and Ellid... you two have been there for us in so many ways - ladies, I love you both, and THANK YOU.
When we have signed the contract and have received the information about the publication, I'll post here for anyone who is interested. :D
